Commerzbank’s Tatha Ghose reports that the Hungarian Forint has steadily outperformed regional peers over the past year, helped by expectations of political change and improved EU relations. A landslide victory for opposition party Tisza, delivering a constitutional super‑majority, exceeded market hopes. In response, Commerzbank has revised its Hungarian Forint (HUF) forecast path stronger.
Political shift supports currency strength
"Over the past year, the Hungarian forint outperformed its peer group steadily, not only because the euro was appreciating, but because of growing market optimism that the political regime would change at the April 2026 election, ending Hungary’s isolation within the EU and unlocking valuable EU funds."
"Outperformance jumped further yesterday after the outcome turned out to be beyond optimistic expectations: backed by record voter turnout, opposition Tisza under Péter Magyar scored a landslide which gives it a super-majority, sufficient to enact constitutional changes and dismantle Orban-era institutional frameworks."
"We revised our HUF forecast path stronger."
